Stuttering video

[limebrook1]

I have put a clip of video on my site. Problem is that it starts playing immediately and stops and stutters the first time its played through. Second time it is fine.

Obviously it is not optimised properly. Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?

Video on page www.limebrook.com/tattygare.html

I would like to put other clips up, so any help welcomed!

Thanks

I think this has to to more with the speed and quality of your internet connection.

Not sure - all people who have spoken to me about it have reported the problem. There doesn't seem to be anyone who says it plays smoothly first go - I have tried it on various PCs and connections myself and it is always the same.

Other videos (which seem to be bigger than mine) seem to play much better. I have reduced the quality as far as possible, but still don't seem to have made any difference.

Thanks for answering though
